Hey all, I'm new to the SC10FT. I got one last week, basically built it on Friday, raced it today and did pretty good, ending up winning out of a field of about 20 at a club race, not too shabby.

I'm running more or less the box setup with the Avid hex conversion, Triad slipper, steering rack and 12mm spring conversion (spring cups and preload collars).

So far I'm really impressed with how great it is to drive, I like it a lot more than my 4wd and basically put it up for sale, lol. Honestly, I just find it more fun to drive.

I do have too much power, but it was all I had motor-wise and really didn't want to buy one, so I'm running an RSPro and a 6.5. I just have it turned way down and honestly it feels fine, it's not difficult to drive or anything.

I need to experiment with weights (need to find some good weights to buy) and drag brake. Who's running an RSPro with drag brake and how much? it would give me a good starting point.

If any of ya'll were on the fence about the Triad slipper, it's fantastic. I love the thing, so easy to drive.
Ya, I tend to enjoy my FT sc10 2wd more too. I also have sc10 4x4 and Losi scte. The 4x4's are a blast but I enjoy the finess of 2wd. The irony is the 4x4's are faster but that usually translates to me sneeking by on the inside of turns. People ask me if my trucks a 4wd all the time and I just say nope!

I like 10 to 20% drag break because it's faster than pushing my finger to brake position. I does take a while to get used to it.
